   I'm definitely willing to buy a used car, and mentioned it. It's just a matter of finding one that I like that's available. I'd also like to reduce that additional risk as much as possible by buying certified pre-owned f

   I would love to see Chinese cars drive the cost of vehicles down significantly. I've been semi-looking for a new car for a year now (now rush since I walk to work), and it's ridiculous how expensive everything is. After taxes and

   Is this the recommended order to read/learn them in? If I was primarily concerned with getting up to par with math for the sake of being able to actually understand everyone's favorite algorithms textbooks, would you still suggest

    Right, everyone knows the stereotypes, but not everyone knows that there's an identifiable condition behind it, with signs and patterns that are identifiable and uniform, as well as support for victims. >More specifically, people ar

    FYI you're responding to a borderline on a throwaway. Don't waste your time.

    I dated a high-functioning borderline as well. It was a horrible experience, but in retrospect I'm (kind of) grateful to have learned about personality disorders as a result. I guess I learned a lot about myself too. I feel absolutely

    What resources do you recommend to new SWE hires with no Go experience in order to ramp them up?

    Maybe someone who actually works at FAANG can weigh in, but I would think that one of your best bets would be getting into one as a general SWE and then transitioning to AI/ML internally after a year. I recall Google even having some s

    Older Vietnamese-Americans have always staunchly voted Republican, at least where I grew up (Orange County, California). I wonder how many people have warned the administration that they're targeting a loyal voting bloc.

    My guess is he's not broke broke -- he probably has millions in debt for assets like homes and cars and whatever else, and he's doing this to pay those off. I don't think someone who is getting paid $200 just to record themse

    I think we'd see the same thing that happened with Parse after Facebook stopped supporting it. I.e. the vast majority of people who were previously using it would stop, despite continued maintenance by an open source community.

    This seems like as good a HN thread as any to ask this, since I've been looking into it recently. What are some cars to look into if I'm interested in the following things? Or what are some cars that I should specifically avoid? -

    >Agree, but I also read this as a little condescending towards Chinese workers. You need to talk to Chinese tech employees who were formerly working/living in China and are now in the US. They will have nothing but bad things to say
